Metallics BFRS215 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Metallics BFRS215 masonry bit fit a standard 1/4 inch chuck or drill?
The shank on the BFRS215 is 1/4 inch round, so it chucks into any standard keyed or keyless drill chuck that takes 1/4 inch. It is not an SDS or SDS-Plus shank, so it will not lock into a rotary hammer that only accepts SDS tooling. For anchor holes in concrete with a hammer drill, use a hammer drill with a conventional chuck.
2) What size hole does the Metallics BFRS215 carbide masonry bit drill?
It cuts a 1/2 inch diameter hole. That is the hole size to use when an anchor manufacturer calls for a 1/2 inch carbide bit, which on most concrete anchors means a 1/2 inch nominal sleeve or wedge anchor. Match the bit size to the anchor spec, not to the bolt thread.
3) How many bits come in the Metallics BFRS215 pack?
Five bits per pack, supplied in a pouch rather than loose or individually carded. That makes it a restock quantity for a crew drilling repeat anchor holes at one diameter, rather than a single-bit purchase.
4) Can I use this carbide masonry bit in concrete and block, or is it only for brick?
It is a carbide-tipped fast spiral masonry bit, which is the general purpose type for concrete, block, brick and mortar. The fast spiral flute clears dust quickly, which matters most when drilling deeper holes in cured concrete. It is not intended for steel or wood.
5) Is the Metallics BFRS215 the right bit for drilling anchors for electrical strut and conduit supports?
Yes, that is its usual use. It is catalogued by Metallics as electrical supply fastening tooling, and a 1/2 inch carbide bit with a 1/4 inch shank is what an electrician reaches for when setting anchors for strut, straps and box mounts in concrete or block walls.
